Fox FM raid: Nana’s ‘Gestapo’ tactics at work – Anyidoho

Monday’s assault by some macho men on Akufo-Addo critic, Baah Acheamfuor, in the studio of private radio station Fox FM in the Ashanti region during a live programme, betrays the “fascist” nature of the flagbearer of the main opposition New Patriotic Party and his intention to destroy Ghana’s democracy with “Gestapo tactics”, the governing National Democratic Congress has said.

Mr Acheamfuor was manhandled by six heavily built men, who stormed the station’s studio, to ruffle him about comments he made about the NPP, which they found offensive.

The Ashanti regional Director of Communication, Kwesi Kyei, has been arrested by the police and charged with assault and conspiracy to commit assault in connection with the attack.

In a statement to condemn the attack, the NDC’s Deputy General Secretary Koku Anyidoho said: “Yesterday, Monday, April 25, 2016, joined the days that will go down in the dark annals of Ghana’s political history as another day that the New Patriotic Party (NPP), under the fascist leadership of Akufo-Addo, resorted to physical attack on a fellow party member who spoke his mind about corruption within the Party.”

“NPP activist, Baah Acheamfuor, was brutally and mercilessly beaten to near pulp by thugs loyal to Akufo-Addo at Fox FM in Kumasi.

“The NDC condemns the manner in which Akufo-Addo is desecrating Ghana’s democracy via the Gestapo tactics he has adopted within the NPP to cow his opponents into submission.

“The NDC respects the Ghana Police as an effective institution of State and we have no doubt that the Ashanti Police led by DCOP Nathan Kofi Boakye will bring Akufo-Addo’s thugs to book.

“If it is the case that Akufo-Addo is hoping to unleash the same mayhem he is unleashing on his opponents within the NPP, on the NDC, he must think twice because it will not be countenanced.

“Democracy is about the exchange of ideas and not the use of brute force and beastly acts to have ones voice heard,” the statement said.
